Abstract
This article presents the design and implementation of a super-twisting second-order sliding-mode controller (SOSMC) for a synchronous reluctance motor. Second-order sliding-mode control is an effective tool for the control of uncertain nonlinear systems since it overcomes the main drawbacks of the classical sliding-mode control, i.e., the large control effort and the chattering phenomenon. Its real implementation implies simple control laws, and ensures an improvement in the sliding accuracy with respect to conventional sliding-mode control. This article proposes a novel scheme that is based on the technique of super-twisting second-order sliding-mode control. First, SOSMC is derived mathematically, and then the performance of the proposed method is verified by simulations. The proposed SOSMC shows robustness for variations in the motor parameters and an improvement in the chattering phenomenon.
